The SWING HAMMER MILL is possibly the most economical mill available for the return in output. Glen Creston offers two versions of the mill, each available in three sizes – Models 10, 20, 30 and 60:-
Blower Discharge, for discharge of material by gravity.
Blower Discharge, for efficient discharge of lighter weight particles, such as paper, plastic foam or feathers and, possibly, for applications where the processed material is distributed to another processing area or level.
As a further option, each unit can be supplied either on a steel baseplate, for customer installation and wiring, and for positioning over a collecting vessel, pit, conveyor or hopper; the bottom of the mill is open for rapid discharge, or free standing, on a frame, ready-wired with an integral starter; the outlet has a grid to prevent hand access.

OPERATING PRINCIPLE
Bottom Discharge Mill
Material is fed into the carbon steel inlet hopper, protected by safety baffles, from where it falls into the grinding chamber and
is ground by the action of freely rotating hardened steel hammers against a serrated face. The ground product passes through a mild steel screen.
Blower Discharge Mill
The operating principle is the same as for the Bottom Discharge Mill but, additionally, a powerful fan pulls the material into the grinding chamber and through the screen.
